The Rise of a General's Daughter-in-Law Doctor

Hearing the sounds around her, Huang Qingling realized that she had been staring at a man in a daze. Her face flushed, and she turned to look at the street, thinking: "They're all worthless things, so what if they're destroyed?"

However, upon seeing Shangguan Jingye, she gently addressed everyone, saying, "I didn't check the carriage before leaving today. Although I don't know why the horse went out of control, I will compensate everyone for the losses caused. Please take stock and collect the compensation at the Huang residence later."

The people present stopped talking after hearing this. Seeing that the matter was over, they dispersed and went about their own business.

Seeing that Miss Huang's attitude was quite good, Li Muxia didn't pursue the matter further and prepared to take her leave.

Seeing the two men about to leave, Miss Huang quickly said, "Gentlemen, please wait, I haven't compensated you yet."

Shangguan Jingye glanced at Li Muxia, and now he understood Huang Qingling's thoughts. He said, "No need, we haven't suffered any losses. Farewell!" With that, he left with Li Muxia.

Huang Qingling was about to speak when she saw that Shangguan Jingye and Li Muxia had already turned and left, so she stopped. There was plenty of time in the future. She said to the coachman, "Follow them and see where they stay."

The coachman obeyed and followed behind Li Muxia and the others.

Li Muxia and Shangguan Jingye went to the tailor shop to pick up the altered clothes and returned to the inn, unaware of the little tail following them.

In the private room on the second floor, Dongfang Jinxuan looked at Dongfang Jincheng who had returned, poured him tea, and said with admiration, "Third Brother, you are really amazing. You managed to control such a dangerous situation."

Then, glancing downstairs, he said, "However, those two young masters who rescued people look somewhat familiar. I feel like I've seen them somewhere before."

Shangguan Jingye picked up his teacup, blew on it, and said softly, "Yes, it's Shangguan Jingye from the Shangguan family and the eldest daughter of the Protector General's Mansion."

Dongfang Jinxuan stared in shock, his mouth agape. He stammered, "Third Brother, you...you mean that the fat young master just now was the fat young lady from the General's Mansion?"

Seeing Dongfang Jincheng nod, Dongfang Jinxuan said incredulously, "We just saw her a little over ten days ago, right? This chubby young master we met today is much thinner than Li Muxia was a little over ten days ago. I didn't even recognize him."

Dongfang Jincheng continued, "Father instructed us to conduct a covert investigation and be careful not to reveal our identities. Although we disguised ourselves, we should try to avoid contact with people we know in the future to avoid unnecessary trouble."

Dongfang Jinxuan nodded and said, "Third brother, how long will we stay in Pinggu County? Father has given us three months. There are five counties in total, so we have plenty of time. We already spent a day yesterday conducting a secret investigation in Pinggu County. The people in Pinggu County are living quite well, and there are no beggars on the streets. It seems that the magistrate of Pinggu County is doing a good job."

Dongfang Jincheng looked at his fourth brother, who was still too young, and said, "Don't just look at appearances. According to the information Zhu Feng found out, Huang Qingling should be the daughter of Huang Zheng, the magistrate of Pinggu County. Judging from how the people dared not speak out, do you still think Pinggu County is good?"

Dongfang Jinxuan fell into deep thought upon hearing his third brother's words. He realized he was indeed not as observant as his brother. It seemed he still had much to learn.

Back at the inn, Li Muxia recounted the events of the day to her master, even teasing her senior brother Huang Qingling when she mentioned him.

The next day, Li Muxia and her group went to Zhang Lizheng's house early for a free clinic. Because they were going to stay there for a few more days, their master postponed the originally planned clinic time by a few days. When Zhang Lizheng found out, he was all smiles. Of course, he hoped that Li Muxia and her group could stay a few more days.

The inn where they were staying also attracted a new person today, Huang Qingling from yesterday. He was dressed very nicely today and arrived at the inn early in the morning, only to be told that Li Muxia and the other two had gone out. After asking the innkeeper when they would return, he left with his maid.

Sure enough, when Li Muxia and the others returned in the evening, they saw Huang Qingling sitting in the lobby of the inn drinking tea.

Huang Qingling quickly stepped forward to greet the three of them, bowing softly and gently, which left Bai Qingshi completely bewildered. Who was this person?

Li Muxia whispered in Bai Qingshi's ear, "This is the Miss Huang I told you about yesterday, Senior Brother's troublesome love interest."

After Bai Qingshi learned the identity of the visitor, he glanced at Huang Qingling again and saw that she looked at his second disciple with a shy expression. She was indeed Shangguan Jingye's love interest.

Shangguan Jingye was also helpless, but you can't just ignore someone who greets you. Seeing that his master and junior sister didn't seem to care, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and reply.

"Miss Huang, please have some tea."

Bai Qingshi and Li Muxia looked at Shangguan Jingye as if he were an idiot, their eyes seeming to say: Idiot, even a fool knows that this Miss Huang is here to see you, she has taken a liking to you.

Seeing his master and junior sister looking on with amusement, Shangguan Jingye sighed helplessly in his heart.

Seeing that Shangguan Jingye still remembered her, Huang Qingling was overjoyed. She said in a coquettish voice, "I've come to see you two gentlemen to thank you for your bravery in saving that mother and child yesterday. My father is the magistrate of Pinggu County, and he was deeply moved by your heroic actions. He would like to invite you to a banquet at my residence."

Hearing this voice, Li Muxia got goosebumps. Seeing that her senior brother also looked disgusted, she felt relieved.

Hearing Huang Qingling's lame excuse, I couldn't help but admire this Miss Huang. As a woman in ancient times, she was quite bold in pursuing the one she loved, which made her a remarkable woman, provided that she didn't use her father's status to achieve her goal.

At this moment, Bai Qingshi saw his apprentice looking over and felt it was time to help him out of the predicament. He said, "This must be Miss Huang. My apprentice mentioned you to me yesterday and also talked about what happened yesterday. As doctors, it is our responsibility to treat the sick and save lives, so we won't trouble you, Magistrate. We won't be staying here for long and will be leaving soon. We won't be attending the banquet. Please convey our message to Miss Huang."

After hearing Bai Qingshi's words, Huang Qingling still wanted to argue, but Li Muxia saw through her and quickly said, "Yes, Miss Huang, we will be leaving Pinggu County in two days. My senior brother's wife is about to give birth, so we need to hurry back or we will miss it."

Upon hearing this, everyone present was taken aback.

Bai Qingshi: Mu Xia's move was brilliant.

Shangguan Jingye: Whose wife is she? Is she mine? When did this happen?

Huang Qingling: What? He's married, and his wife is about to give birth.

Li Muxia didn't care what they thought and added fuel to the fire, saying, "Hey, I'm not trying to criticize you, but you're really something. Your wife is about to give birth and you're still running around everywhere. Aren't you afraid that she and your dozen or so concubines in the backyard will team up against you?" This sentence perfectly portrayed Shangguan Jingye as a scumbag.
